Earwax

Ear is one of our important sense organ that function to detect the sound come and differ them. We have two ears on the left and right, so we can differ where the sound come from right side or from left side. If have the similar frequency come for left and right side of ear, its mean come from the top. If there are plug on the ear hole this will disturbed of hearing and cause wrong to detect the source, this plug normally merge from dirt that accumulate on the ear hole captured by ear wax that available along the ear hole.

Earwax have function to protect of our ear from infection make water can’t be stick to the ear skin. This earwax is formed by wax glands in the external ear canal. The main component of earwax is keratin. There are different individuals vary considerable in the amount and consistency of their earwax. There are two types described, wet and dry wax, which are inherited. Dry wax is common in Asia people while wet wax is common in western Europe people. Too little earwax can cause risk of infection, too much wax also increase the incidence of infection and hearing loss.

Wax can make plug of our ear, cause hearing sensitivity reduced, and full feeling in the ear. Wax can trap bacteria in the ear, and leading to infection, that is usually painful or at least itchy as the alarm that our ear have full of wax.

To remove wax from our ear should be careful because if you do a wrong way that can cause breaking the eardrum (perforation) and can cause infection because of your cotton bud contain bacteria. Even this tool often use to clean our ear from wax but cotton bud have risk to make this accident happened. I recommend against using cotton tipped applicators, hair pins, and similar devices to clean the ear.

Human Organs

Image
The human organs is drawn such as on the picture belows: Each organ have certain function to our body, if there is a disturbance to certain organ function the body will feel inconvenience and actually the nerve will give an alarm through the network and will sent to the brain. Our brain than should think about what the abnormal condition, and should have any solution to maintain an abnormal situation.

Nose

The nose, the site of the sense of smell is the organ through which mammals take in air. It is supported by cartilage and bone, covered with skin , lined with a mucous membrane, and provided with muscle. A nasal septum divides it into passages, each of which begins with a vestibule and contains a respiratory and olfactory region. The lining of the vestibule is continuous with the skin and contains hairs, sweat glands, and sebaceous (oil producing) glands . The respiratory region includes nearly all of the septum and the lateral walls of the nose. Goblet cells, which produce and secrete a watery mucus, are present in the lining, as is a type of erective tissue, composed of large, thin-walled veins whose blood supply serves to warm incoming air. The olfactory region is located on the superior concha and adjacent septum. Olfactory cells are present in its lining and have delicate, slender process (modified cilia) at their free surface. Odors from chemicals in the air are received by ...

Nervous System on Sole of Foot

Image
The palms of the hands and the soles of the feet have some sweat glands than any other part of body. Excessive hand sweating is the most common sweating problem, sweaty hands usually come along with sweaty feet. When sweaty hands and feet become a severe problem, they are called palmar hyperhidrosis and pedal hyperhidrosis respectively. This tend happen begin in early childhood and become worse after teenage years and early adulthood. The sweaty hands and feet are likely to develop cracking and scaling of the skin, blister, frostbite , warts and fungal infections . According to traditional Chinese medicine, the spleen system controls the muscles and the limbs, the four extremities must be nourished by the nutrient essence transformed and transported by the spleen. Several nervous system on the sole of foot as on the picture below:

Muscle

Muscle tissue, which comprises about 40 percent of human body weight, consist of threads, or muscle fibers, supported by connective tissue. All living cells can move to some degree, but this ability is highly developed in muscles, which act by fiber contraction; the fibers can shorten to two thirds of their resting length. Muscle vary greatly in structure and function in different organs and animals. Based on structure there are two types of muscles; smooth and s treated, "Involuntary", or smooth, muscles are found in the walls of all the hollow organs and tubes of the body (for example, blood vessels and intestines). There react slowly to stimuli from the autonomic nervous system. The "voluntary," or striated, muscles of the body attach mostly to the bones to move the skeleton, and under the microscope their fibers have a cross striped appearance. Striated muscle is capable of fast contractions. The heart wall is made up of special muscle fibers (cardiac muscle),...
